Bio
Utilizing skills honed while a dancer for the NBA’s Miami Heat, Layla won WWE’s 2006 Diva Search to gain entry into WWE.
After making her first appearance that year at SummerSlam, the English-born beauty took her hot dance steps to ECW, where she wowed the WWE Universe as part of the Extreme Exposé Diva dance troupe.
By 2009, Layla joined forces with Michelle McCool to form Team Lay-Cool. The “Flawless” duo seemed inseparable, even going as far as referring to themselves as the self-professed “co-Women’s Champions” when Michelle held the title.
But, it wouldn’t take long for Layla to enjoy her time in the spotlight.
With McCool at her side, Layla pinned Beth Phoenix on the May 14, 2010, edition of SmackDown to become the first ever British Women’s Champion in a rare two-on-one Handicap match for the women’s title.
Layla made history once again as she helped Michelle defeat two-time Divas Champion Melina to unify the Divas and Women’s Championships in a Lumberjills match.
But things began to unravel between Layla and Michelle in 2011, culminating with a Loser Leaves WWE match at Extreme Rules, which saw their friendship end and McCool leave the squared circle for good.
The British beauty is a formidable force to be reckoned with and looks to continue leaving a mark on the Divas division.
Breakdown
Layla makes a great Tag Team partner with her 90 rating, but overall she is rated as a 70. Use her decent speed to inflict damage with running Hurricanranas and keep the opponent away from you. She’s got the Leverage Pin ability, so reverse groggy grapples against you into strong pin attempts.
